Re: auto injury

This is classic liability insurance company behavior. You need an experienced PI lawyer NOW. Let's just hope you haven't already prejudiced your claim in some way. If you have not agreed to a specific amount yet you may still be able to negotiate a higher amount but do not try to do it yourself. Are you close to the statute of limitations running? Act quickly to get competent representation.

Did you hire an attorney to help you with the claim? If not, I would strongly suggest contacting an attorney before finalizing any settlement. You should not communicate a single word with the insurance company at this point. Please contact my office for a free consultation. 404.529.9081
